Still searching for the perfect one?

An early incarnation of the Hickory Chair Furniture Company wore the tag line: "Chairs made better than seems necessary"—Clearly, they spoke our language.

Jacqueline Kennedy’s 1962 redesign of the White House interior is credited with bringing a renewed interest to Hickory Chair Furniture Company pieces. Although, like Kittinger, colonial reproductions had been mainstays of the brand since its founding in 1911, the mid 20th-Century brought about a renewed public interest. Indeed, Hickory Chair Furniture Company décor consists of proper, Federalist-style pieces that have been elegantly updated with sensuous curvature, illustrious finishes, and a good deal of American revere.
